Geoffrey Hinton

He spent decades being told neural networks were a dead end. He kept going. His work on deep learning became the foundation of every AI system on the planet — ChatGPT, self-driving cars, medical imaging, all of it. Then he quit Google to warn the world about what he helped create. He could have stayed quiet, collected his check, and enjoyed retirement. Instead, he told the truth about the dangers of his own life's work. A Grithosian doesn't hide from uncomfortable truths — especially the ones they caused.
